Improvements to SR 15 Bypass from SR 15 to SR 242
Project ID: 0013616
Construction Year: 2026
State: GA Counties: Washington
Entity: Georgia Department of Transportation
The 3.7-mile project begins on SR 15 at milepost 10.00 near Boatright Road. It will extend north on a new route to SR 242. The road will feature two lanes in each direction separated by a 24-foot raised median. Each side of the road will have a 12-foot outside lane, an 11-foot inside lane, a 2-foot inside paved shoulder, and a 10-foot outside shoulder (6.5 feet of which will be paved).
Additionally, grade separations will be built at both crossings of the Central of Georgia Railroad Company (Norfolk Southern Corporation) and near the wetlands at Anderson Pond. Turn lanes will be added at the intersections of SR 15, Grady Mertz Road, Holmes Cannery Road, and SR 242. The intersection with SR 242 will have two-stop control conditions on both approaches.
Work for this project will include the acquisition of new right of way and a variety of easements imposed on adjacent landowners through the eminent domain process.
